  • A True Servant

    A True Servant

    I usually don’t have many dreams but I had one this morning and felt like I was supposed to post it.

    In the dream I saw a true servant of God who God was using.

    Because the authorities in the church did not understand what was happening they misjudged him and were telling him to repent of what he was doing.

    In the end, they realized that he was a true servant of God and they repented.

    The LORD says, “Many of My servants have been misunderstood by the authority I have placed in My Body (the Church). Because of that they have been rejected and pushed aside and as a result that which I wanted to do in your midst has been aborted. When you realize that which you have done is wrong and you truly repent of that wrong…I will pour out My goodness upon you and there will be a revival in your midst like you have never seen before. Many of those who have become cold and indifferent toward me will return with newness of heart, mind and actions and those who did not know Me will say, ‘surely God is in this place’, and will turn to Me. My BODY will receive healing and My glory will be seen.”

    Scriptures:

    Romans 2:4b (Amplified Bible) “…are you unmindful or actually ignorant [of the fact] that God’s kindness (goodness…KJ) is intended to lead you to repent (to change your mind and inner man to accept God’s will)?”
    Acts 3:19 (Amplified Bible) “So repent (change your mind and purpose); turn around and return [to God], that your sins may be erased (blotted out, wiped clean), that times of refreshing (of recovering from the effects of heat, of reviving with fresh air) may come from the presence of the Lord.”

    God will ALWAYS honor His Word :0)(0:

  • Atheist or worshiper?

    Atheist or worshiper?

    What is the difference between YOU and an atheist?

    We can talk about Jesus Christ to some, but does He really make a difference in your life?

    Do you worship Jesus as LORD on Sunday?

    Do you cherish your relationships with other Christians?

    And other than that mere hour on Sunday, do YOU look at life any different than the worldly who do NOT believe in God?

    For the atheist – by Roger Harned

    Your matter doesn’t matter.

    Never mind your mind.

    My soul sees who God has made.

    Your soul touches mine.

    Hebrews 10: 

    23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.

    24 Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works.

    25 And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.

    26 Dear friends, if we deliberately continue sinning after we have received knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice that will cover these sins.

    Psalm 95:6-7

    Come, let us worship and bow down.
    Let us kneel before the LORD our maker,

    for he is our God.
    We are the people he watches over,
    the flock under his care.
    If only you would listen to his voice today!

    My soul seeks your soul, dear brother, dear sister in our Lord Christ Jesus.

    Let us gather together in thankfulness.

    See you Sunday, my fellow saints, as we gather as His church.
